You have rolled over and played dead, hitler had done the same to his people, look how many died.
It's different here, we're not as paranoid or scared of our government or environment, we're also not 1930's germany so it's a bit pointless to try to even juxtapose us.

So what if i have to get a shooter's license?.. big deal. what purpose did my air rifle serve? shooting pests on the farm way back in the day and target practice as a teen.. not something I do either of now.
I have to get a driver's license to drive a car.. why not a gun? It seriously doesn't bother me in principle except for the fact that air-rifles got thrown in with the rest given their non-lethality.
Here in Australia we don't worry about the government wanting us to wear tethers. maybe you should move if you're that scared!
You know as well as I do that thats a silly thing to bring to the argument.
Believe it or not most people can discern the difference between freedoms we need and freedoms that don't matter if they're regulated (driving, drinking, smoking, shooting etc)
